Bioclear Overlays, Black Triangles & Crown Alternatives
The Bioclear Technique is a game changer! At Scioto Smiles, we are Bioclear certified providers. It offers a middle ground that manages to be both less invasive (less cutting) and still long-lasting! Bioclear Overlays are a great alternative to veneers, dental bonding, and even dental crowns. It can be used to address a wide range of dental issues, including:
- Covering stained or discolored teeth.
- Repairing chips, cracks, or breaks in teeth.
- Rebuilding severely worn-down teeth.
- Rejuvenating aged teeth that are worn short or dark.
- Closing gaps between teeth.
- Erasing the “black triangle” gaps between teeth.
- Changing the size and shape of uneven, irregularly shaped, or too-small teeth.
- Restoring teeth damaged by decay or failing fillings.
These uses, paired with the option to apply Bioclear to one, several, or all of your teeth—just like veneers—make this a versatile treatment with the potential to meet your unique treatment needs and wants.
Unlike veneers, though, Bioclear is minimally invasive. Dental veneers require your dentist to remove a small amount of enamel from the front and sides of your teeth before they can be placed to prevent your teeth from looking too thick. It’s incredibly effective, but it does permanently change these teeth, meaning that you’ll need a restoration like veneers for the rest of your life.
Bioclear doesn’t require removal of tooth enamel and involves just as little tooth preparation as dental bonding. Getting less dental work and preserving as much of your natural tooth structure as possible is considered the best option for your long-term oral health, and it leaves your options for future treatments open.
Additionally, Bioclear’s ability to surround and encase your tooth means that it can also be an effective and minimally invasive alternative to a dental crown. Once again, it requires less tooth preparation and allows you to maintain more of your natural tooth structure, all while restoring and protecting the health, function, and appearance of your tooth like a crown would.
